G. I. Gurdjieff

Then you'll need to go back into life, and there you will measure yourself constantly with forces which will show you your place.
G. I. Gurdjieff

G. I. Gurdjieff
Knowledge by itself does not give understanding. Nor is understanding increased by an increase of knowledge alone. Understanding depends upon the relation of knowledge to being...It appears only when a man feels and senses what is connected with it.
G. I. Gurdjieff
Wish' is the most powerful thing in the world. Higher than God.
G. I. Gurdjieff

G. I. Gurdjieff
The first reason for people's slavery is our ignorance, and above all, our ignorance of ourselves.
G. I. Gurdjieff
Two things in life are infinite the stupidity of man and the mercy of God.
G. I. Gurdjieff

G. I. Gurdjieff
If a sufficient number of people who wanted to stop war really did gather together, they would first of all begin by making war upon those who disagreed with them. And it is still more certain that they would make war on people who also want to stop wars but in another way.
G. I. Gurdjieff
It is only by grounding our awareness in the living sensation of our bodies that the 'I Am,' our real presence, can awaken.
